Recommended Posts

Hey I' m finally getting my operation after years in the works. I'm 320 right now and although I want to lose weight, I can't really imagine myself " unround" lol. I find myself checking women out saying " I wouldn't mind being that size or is it possible for me to be that size?" I think I'm driving myself crazy....

My surgery is Friday on 12/14...i find myself doing that as well. I try to go on youtube and find sleevers who are the same height as me just a gauge on what certain weights would like on me.

I do the same thing and cant wait to wear all the cute clothes. My surgery is the 19th as well. Nervous but excited that it is only a week away. There seems to be so much to do with the holidays coming and so little time to get prepared.

I'm the 19th and I really am nervous but I think im nervous about change.... I haven't gone food shopping yet, have you? I need to get it together. And girl talking about the outfits, lord know that my biggest motivation. I love to dress up but in the last two years of gaining weight about 60 lbs, I stopped buying clothes I just hated the way I looked.

I'm in England and the prescribed pre op diet is 2pints milk, 4low fat yoghurt's and 1stock cube a day. For 14 days. Then post op it's anything you can suck through a straw, so watered Down yoghurt's, fruit juice, smooth watery Soups, milk and smoothies etc for 4 weeks, I have just bought some cans of Tomato Soup, some Alpro soya milk choc flavour, and some tubs of custard and also som low fat ice cream. Do you have any other ideas or advice?

hi Im in Ireland i did the same pre op don't forget your multi Vitamin !

i had my surgery on the 19th of November so just over three weeks out.

the first week i couldn't stomach strong flavors so just had Water and watered down juice by the end of the first week i started craving Soup but again something bland. be careful of the Tomato soup and fresh juice it makes the acid worse i am on protium for acid reflux it is a really small pill easy to swallow early on too.

best of luck you guys x

I'm also on the 19th and have done all my shopping. I got a little bit of everything as far as Protein goes. Some sweet (Optimum Gold Mocha Cappuccino and Lean Dessert chocolate Coconut) a fruity mix (Nectar Fuzzy Naval) a salty mix (Unjury chicken Broth) and one unflavored mix (Unjury Unflavored) to mix with Jello, pudding, Soups, etc. I also have lots of Jello for the first week. I bought all my Vitamins, most from CelebrateVitamins.com. I'm going to pick up some plain chicken broth (Rachel Ray's Low Sodium), Gas-X Chews and liquid Tylenol from CVS, I have a lot of low cal, sugar free flavored waters, G2, Vitamin Water, juice, etc. that I'm going to water down and drink to stay hydrated, and I have some comfy pajamas all picked out. I think that about covers it :) I'm ready!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
